About the producer
The first vintage of Dom Pérignon was produced in 1921 and was released in 1936. The brand was initially owned by Champagne Mercier and gifted to Moët & Chandon in 1927. At first Dom Pérignon was just vintage Moët & Chandon with extended ageing and bottled in the wine's now trademark 18th-century-style, narrow-necked bottles. Since the 1940s, Dom Pérignon has been made and bottled separately. Today it is considered a separate brand to Moët & Chandon, made at a separate winery by a totally different team.
